Religion is a pathway in life, a way to remember the secret and honor the secret and work for the world in everything that we do. Which unites with the god, the purpose of religion is to lead us to realize the god. All religion has the some ideas of some supernatural power of god. The study of the spirit and how everything came to be.
Actually, most religions have done more harm than good. Most religions worship nonexistent gods, and some, like Islamism (as opposed to Islam), direct people to abuse the rights of others. Those faiths help people reconnect with the only true and living God. Concerning politics, God expects us to follow his directions and not exclude him from any facet of life. For example, his command to do justice requires us to protect the innocent from murderers. His design of marriage protects women, civilized men, and educates children during their extended immaturity. Well God made the right way but, us (Humans) changed it and went through the wrong way and made all
I would take Hinduism as an example of this question. From my experience, I met an American in a Hindu temple, who was heavily influenced by Hindu religion (Hare rama, Hare Krishna) which is a group of people spreads the message of Lord krishna. Who eventually changed his name to a Hindu name. One of the problems in the religions is it’s proselytizes apprehensive content. People gather and share their experience about the religion, which is really good and makes a positive impact in the community.
Why is a man allowed to have more than one wife in Islam? i.e. why is polygamy allowed in Islam? Why can't Non-Catholics receive holy communion?
Islam Quran (4:3) - "Marry of the women, who seem good to you, two or three or four; and if ye fear that ye cannot do justice (to so many) then one (only) or (the captives) that your right hands possess." This verse clearly allows a man to have up to four wives (Allah conveniently granted Muhammad an exception... according to what Muhammad told his followers). According to the Hadith, the "justice" spoken of merely refers to the dowry provided the bride, not the treatment accorded following the wedding.
Polygamy means a system of marriage whereby one person has more than one spouse. Polygamy can be of two types. One is polygyny where a man marries more than one woman, and the other is polyandry, where a woman marries more than one man. In Islam, limited polygyny is permitted; whereas polyandry is completely prohibited. Qur'an is the only religious book, on the face of this earth, that contains the phrase 'marry only one'. There is no other religion supports more than one wife but, Many Hindu religious personalities, according to their scriptures, had multiple wives. King Dasharatha, the father of Rama, had more than one wife. Even lord krishna had several wives. In the early ages christian mens were allowed to have as many wives as they want since, the bible didn't denied to have number of wives. It was only couple of centuries ago the church restricted to have number of wives to one. A Muslim man can marry as many as four women, and have sexual relations with an unspecified number of slaves as well. Even, Muhammad had eleven wives at one time.
Therefore, polygamy is not a rule, it is an expectation for the men to marry one or more. If he wants to get married to more than one, he should treat both with equal rights.
Christianity Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.” And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. I tell you I will not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.”
Even I don't understand why non-Catholic and non-Christian can’t receive holy Communion, especially when attending funerals and weddings of their friends
and relatives.
Communion is the service of Christian worship at which bread and wine are consecrated and shared. So, Bread as body of christ and wine as blood.
When Jesus said, “Take, eat; this is my body” and “Drink of it, all of you, for this is my blood” he was speaking to his disciples, that's why this should be only done by christians, as the bible warns non-catholic and non-christians should not take communion because they may they it in a unworthy manner and will be guilty of disrespecting jesus.
why practicing communion is really important? The act of taking Communion does not save a person, but rather demonstrates a person’s personal faith and shows that they have already been given salvation in Jesus. As a Christian takes Communion, they are making a proclamation that they believe in Jesus as their Savior and have trusted in his sacrificial death for the forgiveness of their sins.
"This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.”
How should communion be taken? God gives Christians clear instructions on how to take Communion in the letter of Corinthians. To fully understand these instructions, we need to remember the context of the letter. Yet, these instructions still give a clear framework for all churches and Christians on how to practice Communion.
